I really do love this product. The mix of niacinamide and zinc underneath my sunscreen make me feel super protected during the day. Especially since I cannot tolerate Vitamin C as my antioxidant. And this pairs super well with Paula's Choice BHA Gel Exfoliant on days where I'm having acne breakouts. I <3 it here!
Broke me out so bad!I tried it for a few days not really using anything on top just my usual sunscreen ,but it broke me out after a few days even without my sunscreen 😔
